Spitting Image Season 2 release date

Spitting Image Season 2 was announced just days after the first episode of Series 1 aired last year and will air exclusively on BritBox UK from September 11.

Spitting Image Season 2 cast

A whole host of new puppets based on public figures from around the world will appear in Spitting Image Series 2. Expect to see the likes of Sajid Javid, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Tom Cruise, Tom Daley, Jess Phillips, Ariana Grande, Gary Lineker, Bill Gates, Ellen Degeneres, and Raheem Sterling to show up at some point in the new series.   

These new faces join a cast of over 100 puppets developed for the new show, which includes: Joe Biden, Boris Johnson, Cristiano Ronaldo, Prince Andrew, Harry Kane, Vladimir Putin, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Beyoncé, Angela Merkel, Dwayne Johnson, Gareth Southgate, Ed Sheeran, Jürgen Klopp, Elon Musk, Adele, Covid-19, James Corden, Emmanuel Macron, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump, and Dominic Cummings.

What will we see in Spitting Image Season 2?

If the previous series is anything to go by, every public figure could well be in the firing line in the new season. Earlier this year the official Spitting Image Twitter account also teased that England's EURO 2020 football campaign will appear in the new series.

Is there a trailer for Spitting Image Season 2?

Yes— BritBox has recently released a trailer for the upcoming series which shows off some of the antics we can expect to see when Spitting Image returns.

Introduced by the caricature of Boris Johnson, the trailer shows the show hasn't lost its edge and includes plenty of public figures being punched square in the face!
